# @rudderstack/analytics-js-service-worker

RudderStack JavaScript SDK service worker that can be used in browser extensions and serverless runtimes.
It exposes the same interface and features as the [Node.js SDK](https://www.rudderstack.com/docs/sources/event-streams/sdks/rudderstack-node-sdk/).

> For detailed documentation on the RudderStack JavaScript SDK, click [**here**](https://www.rudderstack.com/docs/sources/event-streams/sdks/rudderstack-javascript-sdk/).

- [**Usage in Serverless Runtimes**](#usage-in-serverless-runtimes)
- [**How to build the SDK**](#how-to-build-the-sdk)

## Installing the package

To install the package via NPM, run the following command:

```bash
npm install @rudderstack/analytics-js-service-worker --save
```

```js
import { Analytics } from '@rudderstack/analytics-js-service-worker';

const rudderClient = new Analytics('<WRITE_KEY>', '<DATA_PLANE_URL>');
```

| Note that this NPM module is only meant to be used for a service worker usage. If you want to integrate RudderStack with your Node.js application, refer to the [**RudderStack Node.js repository**](https://github.com/rudderlabs/rudder-sdk-node). |

## Usage in Chrome Extensions

RudderStack JS SDK can be used in Chrome Extensions with manifest v3, both as a content script (via the JavaScript SDK package) or as a background script service worker (via the [service worker package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@rudderstack/analytics-js-service-worker)).

For more details, see [Chrome Extensions Usage](https://github.com/rudderlabs/rudder-sdk-js/blob/main/examples/chrome-extension/USAGE.md).

## Usage in Serverless runtimes

RudderStack JS SDK [service worker](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@rudderstack/analytics-js-service-worker) can be used in serverless runtimes like Cloudflare Workers or Vercel Edge functions.

For more details, see:

- [Vercel Edge Usage](https://github.com/rudderlabs/rudder-sdk-js/blob/main/examples/serverless/USAGE.md)
- [Cloudflare Worker Usage](https://github.com/rudderlabs/rudder-sdk-js/blob/main/examples/serverless/USAGE.md)

## How to build the SDK

- Look for run scripts in the `package.json` file for getting the browser minified and non-minified builds. The builds are updated in the `dist` folder of the directory. Among the others, some of the important ones are:

  - `npm run build:package`: This command outputs the **dist/npm** folder that contains the NPM package contents.
